(HD 720p) The isle of Innisfree, Theme From "The Quiet Man"

Farrelly's "Isle of Innisfree" is a beautiful haunting melody by Irish Composer and Songwriter Dick Farrelly (1916 - 1990). The melody and lyrics express the longing of an Irish emigrant for his native land. It was the main theme of the film "The Quiet Man". It became a worldwide hit for Bing Crosby in 1952 and continues to enrich the repertoires of many artists; it endures in the hearts of many as one of the great songs of Ireland.

The 1952 movie "The Quiet Man" was set in 1920s Ireland. Sean Thornton (John Wayne), an Irish-born American from Pittsburgh, returns to Ireland to reclaim his family's farm in Innisfree. He meets and falls in love with the fiery spinster Mary Kate Danaher (Maureen O'Hara).

Isle Of Inisfree

I've met some folks
Who say that I'm a dreamer
And I've no doubt
There's truth in what they say
But sure a body's bound to be a dreamer
When all the things he loves are far away
And precious things
Are dreams unto an exile
They take him o'er
The land across the sea
Especially when it happens he's an exile
From that dear lovely Isle of Inisfree
And when the moonlight
Peeps across the rooftops
Of this great city
